WASHINGTON, DC -- Today, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) announced a new child survival contract to fight needless childhood deaths in the developing world. Supporting families and communities, the $100 million contract will help expand effective child health interventions like immunization, Vitamin A supplementation and treatment of diarrhea, pneumonia and malaria.
"Nearly 11 million children die each year of preventable diseases," said Dr. E. Anne Peterson, Assistant Administrator of USAID's Bureau for Global Health. "We have a major opportunity and a moral obligation to implement low-cost, lifesaving treatment for children in the developing world."
The new contract bolsters USAID's role as a leader in the global Child Survival Partnership, a multi-donor program established to focus attention on the dire health needs of children in developing countries, with the goal of saving six million children each year by 2015.
USAID's child survival agenda has been active since 1985, when Congress created the Child Survival Program. Since then, USAID has obligated more than $5 billion for child survival, HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases. In addition, USAID has provided more than $2.5 billion to child survival programs in developing countries for maternal and child immunization; prevention and treatment of respiratory infections, diarrheal diseases, and malaria; breastfeeding; nutrition, and water and sanitation.

In Iraq right now I think if you do the math you'll find that Iraqis and other Arabs are doing most of the "blowing up" of other Iraqis.
-
I think you missed my point there toad.
I am simply saying that I personaly see no point to killing of any kind!
It serves no purpose.
The fact that the Iraqi's are blowing each other up is nothing new they have been killing eachother for thousands of years.
I sometimes just wonder that if we spent as much time using our brains on peace insteed of war we might amaze ourselves at what we as a people can do.
Think about it we send men to the moon yet we still fight like we did thousands of years ago for the the same reasons.
We just have better ways of killing each other now.
Dont you think we should be using our creative minds and not to mention our tax dollars to better mankind insteed of taking steps backwards?

I'm totally with ya dude! I was making piece and not war back in the late sixties, myself!
Call me when you get back from straightening these places out, ok?
Here's the list, might as well start at the top:
Genocides, Politicides, and Other Mass Murder Since 1945, With Stages in 2004 (http://www.genocidewatch.org/genocidetable2003.htm)
Oh, and here's a quote (usually attributed to Plato) to take with you on your journey. Perhaps it will comfort you when you hit the rough spots:
Only the dead have seen the end of war.

So if someone broke into your house and started killing everyone in your family, and you had a gun and could stop them only by killing them, you would not try to kill them? Maybe you would just roll over and let your whole family die rather than go against your "moral" values.
Kind of like war. Some things can only be solved by the use of force and killing.

Ahhh you're one of those people who stood by while Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, and many more slaughtered the innocent. The only comfort I get in knowing people like you exist, is that Darwin's rules will kick in and take care of your traits for me ;)

lol interesting link ....
btw what is diference between countries, where killer is Goverment and countries, where killer are Army and Police ?
-
Well, Strafo, the war started over a territorial land-grab.
Nonetheless, it put an end to the "final solution" as well.
Would YOU go to war to end the shoah?

So tell me, Mr. Ad Hominem....
would you have gone to war to stop the Nazi's from killing Jews, Gypsies, Homosexuals and other "enemies of the state"?
Or is that not enough of a logical reason to go to war for you?

First, no killing of any kind but later you see that sometimes it has to be done.
Yet you seem to think everyone else in this thread does or might "take joy in killing another human being."
Again, maybe it's YOU that just doesn't get it. I think just about everyone here abhors war; most of them, however, realize that wars happen.

If you go back you will see that Some dimwitts have been calling me mrblack for a long time.
Heck some of you morons have been calling alot of people mrblack.
En4CR comes to mind and there are others.

Why don't you threaten to kick my *** instead of attacking my kid from another totally unrelated thread? Have you no honor?

Then when i privated him asking him to stfu and dont say stuff like that on open channel, he asked if i was going to the con and if i was, he would beat me up.
And i really wanted to go to the con too..

ummm My Dear friend
Nazi went to war to stop evil Communist and free people from hidden, but growing jewish influence/threat.
Genocide werent official politic of Hitler`s goverment. Most of young Nazi funs went to save world.
If you were born 60 years ago in Germany, you would be proper hardcore nazi volunteer. (IMO , but not most HC from boys on this BBS :) )

Slapshot, don't forget that comment has two Ms.
But hell - if you go through all of MrBlack's personalities posts to correct them, you'd be at it for years.
